Hi

Could anybody help please ?

When I set my internet homepage to a given site and then close down explorer, when I reopen it, my homepage has changed to another site. This has only recently started happening and I can't work out what's changed.

Inevitably the site that sets itself as my homepage is one that brings back some annoying pop ups.

Could anybody advise what I need to do to keep my homepage the site that I set it to be please

Also download and install Microsoft AntiSpyware from microsoft.com (Originally GIANT antispyware) as this will fix loads of other things the previously mentioned two miss including browser hijacks.
